Tour de Romandie, April 29th - May 4th

[search]

was looking forward to see if Suter can become the new Bohli and only get results in Romandie prologues, but unfortunately he must have crashed right away.

Louis Barré to crush everyone in five minutes

He did not, washed

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Finally SRF has blessed me with their stream, this prologue is so short half the riders are already finished!

 

[Netserk]

Romeo did it on a road bike. Zijlaard is on a TT bike.

 

[Berniece]

Almeida only 2.6s slower than Ivan Romeo, 2nd place for now

Nice job not showing Almeida...

 

[Didinho]

It looks harder than I thought. Slow corners. Powering on the false flat.

 

[noob]

Has Almeida finished?

 

[Cycling111]

Seeing the first results, maybe Remco will win. I thought it was a prologue for another type of riders.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Too punchy for Zijlaard

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Looks like a pretty bumpy and curvy course - yikes

 

[Berniece]

Romeo did it on a road bike. Zijlaard is on a TT bike.

With the amount of corners, and how technical it is there's a case to be made if you might gain more time on a road bike in those technical parts compared to a TT bike in the straight sections.

 

[Tim Cahill]

You know it's a good time to be beating Zijlaard on his specialist terrain

 

[Berniece]

Zijlaard slower than Ivan Romeo, beaten by 0.26s

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Bittner on the road - he's my dark horse for the GC

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Maybe Remco will win. I thought it was a prologue for another type of riders.

I think Remco would like less corners and longer straights.

 

[Netserk]

Nice job not showing Almeida...

They showed a faster rider who was also the stage favourite.

 

[noob]

I never knew the difference between prologue and ITT

Romeo did it on a road bike. Zijlaard is on a TT bike.

Was he really. Was before I sat down and watched but interesting. His short maximum power burst has been showcased before that guy got me intrigued.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Bittner on the road - he's my dark horse for the GC

A very dark horse indeed.

 

[Netserk]

Bittner on the road - he's my dark horse for the GC

He can't climb on the big climbs, but he can win a stage. He's also on a road bike today.

 

[noob]

I'm not used to Asgreen in pink.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

They showed a faster rider who was also the stage favourite.

It is possible to show multiple riders within five minutes.

I never knew the difference between prologue and ITT

If it's less than x kilometers (I think it's 10) it's a prologue; if it's more, it's a time trial.

They didn't need to film Zijlaard the entire distance, it would have been perfectly normal to also film Almeida and especially across the finish line.

That can't really be a contentious opinion...
